Along with me, my entire engineering team has been let go. Before I get into my own thoughts, I want to honor them. If you are looking to hire some brilliant accessibility engineers, keep reading.

I am once again asking you not to treat Google’s dev•to as a source for vetted, accessible patterns.
Its post on tool-tips is… well… problematic:

Google needs to pay an accessibility expert to review its posts. It can afford to.

Reposting this awesome poster I found today while on my way to the train station in the morning for work. Sorry that I did not post Alt text earlier, I just learned how to do it.
ALT There is a large poster on the side of a bus stand that reads, Dear Entertainment industry, There's no Diversity, Equity, and inclusion without disability. On the bottom, it reads disability is diversity.com The poster is designed by an all disabled creative team and is powered by Inevitable Foundation

As promised, the ALT badge and exposed image descriptions go global today.
Over the past month, we fixed bugs and gathered feedback from the limited release group. We're ready. You're ready. Let's describe our images! Here's how: help.twitter.com/en/using-tw…
We've gotten a lot of feedback about how to improve the image description (or alt text) experience on Twitter. Today, we're launching 2 features to 3% of Twitter across Android, iOS, and Web: the public ALT badge and exposed image descriptions. 🧵 (1 of 6)
ALT Screenshot of a published Tweet with an image of a cup of espresso. The exposed image description appears above the ALT badge and says: A small white mug with a tiny loop handle, with a shot of deep brown espresso and a light brown crema on top. The mug sits on a small white saucer on a medium brown wooden table.
